So the Dodgers are assured of at least a .500 interleague record, but a win today would give them a much more agreeable winning interleague record. Add to that a hopeful National League win in the All-Star Game (hello, Albert Pujols!) and we'll have a second half to savor.

I'm killing time watching Braves/Red Sox on TBS and the announcers devoted a few minutes to explaining why Blake, Hudson, Ethier, and Pierre should be in the All-Star Game. It was surprising, but nice to hear.

Oh, and I'm going to another party during the game, so here's hoping my eating during a game mojo continues!
